1. Finally, a rainfly... What vestibule?
Yes, after a lot of customer feedback Coleman finally decided to release a rainfly for their Instant Tent line. As seen in my pictures above it comes in a similar pouch and it has the same tie-down lines and pin-style stakes as the tents themselves. As of this writing I have yet to find any information on this item from Coleman themselves. Most of what I read before purchasing my Instant Tent 6 was on the FJ Cruiser Forum at [...], and the Expedition Portal forum at [...].
The rainfly itself is pretty much what you expect, a very tight weave of poly fabric with double-stitched seams, and it should work well. Considering all the Instant Tent reviews talking about leaking this should have been an available accessory from the very beginning, and if Coleman's smart about it they should start including it with the purchase of a new tent. A rainfly not only helps keep you dry when it rains, it also provides the air gap that becomes an extra bit of insulation in winter and summer...
2. Wrong Description!
The product description is only accurate for the Australian/UK version of the rainfly. The Australian version actually does "create a vestibule" and it also includes two telescoping steel poles and guy lines to hold it up. The Australian/UK rainfly actually covers the whole tent, providing actual privacy and protection form real rain, the kind that hits the tent sideways and diagonally during a real rainstorm. The U.S.A. version of the rainfly is just for decoration, or when the rain falls perfectly vertical from the sky.

Well, it did keep the rain out...
I bought this last year in March for what was then an upcoming camping trip where we were expecting some rain and wind. I must say it worked wonders for keeping the rain out of my tent. However, the heat that myself and the one other person in the tent let off caused a massive amount of condensation to form inside. I have used the tent before and since, with no such outcome. With the fly on, I could not ventilate enough and still keep us dry from the rain. I don't know how we would have fared without the fly in the rain. But, I do know that we that it didn't allow any moisture to enter. So, in that respect it failed. Had there not been as much wind that night i may have been able to open the windows of the tent a little more without the fear of water entering. Maybe I will give it another try on a less windy/rainy night. As for the ease of use with this fly...it is one of the easiest I have ever used. No fiddling with tension rods to create vestibules and whatnot. I simply though it...
